Let us go back to 9th century when women had no freedom . All of us know Sri Andaland her story.Why Andal today?Because, today is her birthday “AADIPOORAM”.So we’ll startwith her.She is a precious gem among women.She gathered allher friends towards “SERVICE TO GOD” and she did the services with sincerity and devotion.

Her services to Tamil literature is very great .

We can call her an ideal woman. She was a light to friends. She was selfless and free from all desires andshe set anexample for others to follow.

When one talks about Women liberation, we cannot forget Subramania Bharathiar.He said “Maadhar thammai izhivu seiyyum madamayaikkoluththuvOm”He had a clear vision about women.

Now, all of us talk about Womenempowerment and most ofus mean it as gender equality or equal status with men. Is it the menwho does not give us privilege?

In many places, women are the enemies of women.

What is Women Empowerment?

Today’s girls need simple materialistic pleasure.They think dating and flirting are modern ways of living.They do not know where to draw a line and they land into troubles.Are they marching towards the right direction?

Freedom to women should not become a blemish.

My father used to drop me to my college.My husband has helped me to come out from critical situations. My sons and my husband encourages me in my activities.

.

Not all the husbands are rude and pessimistic.

Is it logic to generalize all men in the society, just because some men are not encouraging their wives?

We are the masters of our actions.So, do your duties at home, and then enjoy your FREEDOM and talk about WOMEN EMPOWERMENTin an optimistic way.Gather friends as Sri Andal did and do your duty with sincerity and dedication.

It is not the freedom that matters. It is the patience and concentration through which we can achieve anything in the world.

I saw this sloka in a small sloka book which I bought from Guruvayoor when I was a schoolgirl. There was a spark in my mind to tune it because Sri Guruvayoorappan is my ISHTA DEIVAM. After 30 years, HE has graced me to tune this and to sing it.
